many o f us have become victims o f
the ’age o f convenience,’ " says A n
gela de Joseph, Beauty Director at
Johnson Products— a leader in
Black
hair care and beauty
products. " W e are forever on the
go, tending to rely on healed appli
ances to give our hair the look we
want in the shortest time possible.
But, constant use o f blow dryers,
heated rollers, and curling irons
tends to dry out the hair and dam
age the ends," Ms. de Joseph notes.
"B lack hair, because it grows up
and away from the scalp in a spiral
pattern has a tendency towards dry
ness— a condition aggravated by the
repeated use o f heated appliances
and styling aids."

To keep your hair in top condition,
here are some tips;
1. TAe C u t: A n excellent haircut
that follows the natural direction
and texture o f the hair is the basis
for good looks and styling-ease. The
style should be versatile and high
light your best features. To d ay’s re-
laxers and grooming products pro
vide more styling options than ever
before.
2. The Trim : Split ends should be
trim m ed periodically to prevent
them from running (like stockings)
up the entire hair shaft.
3. The Shampoo: Stay away from
harsh, super lathering detergent
shampoos. They tend to strip the
hair o f essential lubricants and leave
hair dry, dull, and hard to manage.
4. The Styling: Daily use o f heat
ed appliances increases the risk o f
hair damage. When you use a blow-
dryer, keep it at least 6 inches away
This is the only relaxer on the
market today with a patented condi
tioning system built right into the
relaxer itself. O E N T L E -T R E A T -
M E N T tm leaves hair so soft and
silky, you can run a comb easily
through it immediately after relax
ing and find no tangles. A separate
conditioning application like those
found in conventional relaxer kits is
no longer necessary.
“ The condition o f your hair is an
im portant part o f a well-groomed
lo o k ,” comments Ms. de Joseph.
For avaning sophistication,
hair is brushed smoothly off the
face.
4. D ry hair on warm dryer setting
only, since hot air tends to stimulate
oil glands.
The most effective way to insure
healthy, beautiful hair is to practice
preventive care. A proper diet is o f
great im portance— w ell-balanced,
rich in protein, vitamins, minerals,
and roughage— plus a good night’s
sleep and plenty o f exercise. A little
special care for your hair goes a long
way to m aintain the beauty that is
naturally yours.

For Relaxed Hair
1. Use a relaxer with conditioning
benefits to enhance and protect your
hair’s natural beauty.
2. Touch up your new grow th
every 6-8 weeks depending upon
your h a ir’ s growth rate. The stress
required to comb the new growth
can cause breakage where new
growth meets previously relaxed
hair.
3. W ait at least two weeks be
tween relaxing your hair and color
ing it. Never bleach relaxed hair, or
relax bleached hair.
4. Relaxed hair should be condi
tioned often with products specifi
cally designed to condition, repair
and protect— like Johnson’s Tender
Treatment,*, line.
5. Use i- conditioning shampoo
which supplies a protective coating
and leaves hair easier to comb.
